Um....not really sure what you are asking here. The car I would assume, unless its a GIANT rustbucket, should be strong enough for the motor. But, honestly, I really have no idea what you are asking. Try throwing some punctuation and spelling and grammer into your question and I might be able to help you out.

ok...so you have a wrecked 240...your gonna weld on a clip from another car...and will it be strong enough...sure, if the welds are good. plus you can stiffen the chassie when your welding stuff together...add extra steel if need be. as far as strenghting parts, search all of the sponsors web pages, they have a million and one chassie braces and what not.

Sounds like you got a reseasonble deal. If its not that bad, you may not need to replace the entire front half. You might be able to replace certain parts of frame. I myself really dont know much about welding and frames, but depending on your skill or someone elses skill and the extent of the damage you may not need to spend the money on a front clip.

Hey guy, I know you mean well but your posts are hurting my eyes. You look way smarter when you type with proper spelling and stuff. Heck, it works for me.

"money situation" and "cheap" are red flags when you're talking about a project like this. Just remember you really get what you pay for. Good luck man.

Check out the "Classified" section of the forum. Do some digging in there cause I know there is a bunch of 'whole car part-outs'. If you can't find one there try the local junk yard. Not only did KA's come out of 240's but also Nissan trucks.
